Bosch VE Injection Pump useful info/links

[Chug]

Here are some useful links and guides that I've collected whilst fiddling with, and learning about, Bosch VE injection pumps.

First some help with numbers and identifying what they mean and links for pump/vehicle ID so you can find your Transit and its VE injection pump.

What the Bosch VE injection pump serial number means, for example 0 460 414 153

0= Denotes complete product
460= Product class, Distributor pump
4= Identifier for VE Injection pump
1= Plunger Diameter: 8=8mm,9=9mm,0=10mm,1=11mm,2=12mm,3=13mm & 4=14mm
4= Number of Cylinders
153= Application
******************************************************************************************************************
What the vehicle model numbers mean in the following link (http://www.vepump.cn/CZB.htm)

using the 0 460 414 153 pump as an example again, it lists VE4/11F2000R624-7

VE = VE type pump (VP is also a VE pump)
4 = number of cylinders
11 = 11mm plunger
F = mechanical governor (E = electronic governor)
2000 number = governor controlled RPM (this is pump rpm not engine rpm)
R = clockwise rotation (L = counter clockwise)
624-7 number = production number

For tuning info peugeot forums, land rover forums, cummins forums, in fact any vehicle that has the Bosch VE injection pump fitted and has a forum will probably have nuggets of info.

I hope this info will be as useful to others as it has to me

We, amateurs, do not need test plans for our injection pump, but I have test plans for some.
In Russian, French and English.
In garage conditions, we can replace the plunger pair, lead to the normal size of k and kf, we can measure and install in accordance with the test plan the internal pressure, which determines the timing of injection and traction of the motor.

I control the intracorporeal pressure of the Bosch injection pump.

I came across this video before Xmas,

but my monitor is poor what is the the gauge reading, is it reading in bars? or megabars?

How are you adjusting the pressure?

is it by hitting this pressure relief valve with a hammer?

[cherniy_chack]

If there is a 14 mm hexagon socket in the pump cover, a 16 bar pressure gauge is connected to this fitting, the motor is started and, by unscrewing the connector, the pressure is measured at various engine speeds.
It is sufficient to perform measurements at 1000 rpm and at 4000 rpm.
The pressure at 1000 rpm of the ENGINE should be about 5.5 bar, at 4000 rpm-9 ... 10 bar.
In the fuel pump with different numbers, the pressure may vary slightly.
If there is no fitting, then you need to make the fitting yourself.
I have not made such a fitting yet, but there is a plan.
Pressure in bars.
To increase the pressure in the body of the injection pump, it is necessary to strike the plug in the channel of the regulating valve through a steel rod with a diameter of 6 mm.
To reduce the pressure, you need to measure the depth of the plug in the channel and unscrew the regulating valve from the pump casing.
nstall the valve so that its internal parts can fall into the well depth of about 10 ... 12 mm and a diameter of 7 ... 8 mm.
And blow the hammer through the rod to knock out of the valve channel a spring ring stopper, a cylindrical piston about 5 mm high and a spring.
Then turn the valve over and through the opened channel to remove the plug to the level of the valve body.
Insert the spring, piston into the valve and hammer the ring stopper into place with a light hammer blow.
Install the valve on the injection pump, start the engine and hit the hammer with the hammer, pour the plug to the required pressure at 1000 rpm.
If the pump is OK, the required pressure will be set automatically at 4000 rpm.
